A copy of the said letters are on file with the Clerk /Administrator. Mr. Geretschlaeger presented a revised site plan to the Planning and Zoning Commission incorporating John Stewart's, City Engineer, recommendations as follows: - Sidewalk ramping meeting state handicap accessibility requirements; Grades around the bullnose peninsula West of the truck bay with a maximum grade of 10% as suggested; - The grades of North side of building will be adjusted to maintain a maximum 3:1 slope; - Drainage at the entrance driveway shall be into the swale along the proposed street and be carried around to the West. Mr. Geretschlaeger noted that the proposed building will be stone faced blocked with a decorative band. The proposed building meets the setback requirements of the City. The building elevation best fits the grade of the site. The entire building will be sprinkled. The exterior lighting will be wall packs and will meet the requirement of the City ordinance. The signage will also meet City requirements. Chairperson Tourville asked questions about the loading dock area. It was questioned if there would be sufficient turn - around for semi truck. Mr. Geretschlaeger noted that there would not be enough room for a semi truck to turn around in the parking area. Bob Sorg, owner of Noble Welding, noted that the semi truck traffic is approximately one to two semi trucks per year. P &Z Meeting Minutes May 12, 1992 page two Mr. Geretschlaeger noted that Bob Sorg, owner of Noble Welding, had concerns about when 21st Avenue was scheduled to be upgraded. The concern was with the requirement for bituminous paving, curb and gutter. Mr. Geretschlaeger requested that this requirement be delayed until 21st Avenue is upgraded. One of the concerns expressed was that the elevation of the road when upgraded may be different then the present unimproved road. Mr. Geretschlaeger also expressed a concern of Mr. Sorg was the extension of gas utilities to the Industrial Park. Mr. Sorg would like to have gas utilities extended to the Industrial Park. Chairperson Tourville asked the Commission members present if, in their opinion, was the proposed use of a welding job shop to be considered light manufacturing. It appeared to be the consensus of the Commission members present that a welding job shop would be considered light manufacturing. Chairperson Tourville noted that light manufacturing is a permitted use in the Industrial Zoning District. Chairperson Tourville raised concern about the need for a Special Use Permit when the use is a permitted use. Discussion of Mr. Geretschlaeger request for variance to construct the building one foot above the 100 year flood plain. Chairperson Tourville noted that the City Council should address the two foot above the 100 year flood plain. In his opinion, the two foot above the 100 year flood plain requirement for commercial /industrial developments should be eliminated. If the requirement was change to one foot above the 100 year flood plain it would eliminate the need for a variance from commercial /industrial developments. Mr. Geretschlaeger noted that it was his understanding that any storm water detention was pre- engineered for these lots at the time that the Industrial Park was constructed. Mr. Geretschlaeger noted that he is proceeding on the assumption that this storm water detention plan is sufficient. Chairperson Tourville noted that it was his understanding that the drainage swales constructed in the Industrial Park would supply adequate drainage. It appeared to be the consensus of the Planning and Zoning Commission members present that the bituminous paving, curb and gutter should be delayed until 21st Avenue is upgraded and the gas utilities are installed.
